I think Christianity will be forever it will never fade!!
Why? Because even with the discover of the age of the earth the christians still believe in the authority of the bible! Everyone hear what they want to hear and can't see something they don't want to see. So the delusion is going on ......

Whereas I think major world religions such as Christianity, Islam and Judaism will be around for a long time, I have different reasons for believing that they will continue to exist for a long time.
1) They have millions, if not billions of followers. A World War with specific extermination procedures against the members of one faith (Judaism) could not wipe out one religion.
2) It takes more than just killing people to kill a faith. You have to destroy the buildings and all historical references to that faith. (Which means burning lots and lots of books, and destroying lots of statues.) That's quite hard to do. Do you know how many Bibles there are floating around in the world? Tactically, that would be impossible to do.
3) Even if/when evolution and the Big Bang theory is 100% proven, humanity will always want to believe in a "higher power" because of our fear of Death. That leads to a belief in God, and a death grip on religion.

I think the amount of believers will diminish over time, maybe if humanity is still around maybe in another 1,000 years.. it will be a minor religion and only a small percentage of the world's people will be considered Christian. Probably 10-15%.
I think more people will become Athiest or Agnostic... depends on whats going on though, if you believe the rapture will happen, its probably going to be soon what with Israel becoming a nation again.. and then we really wouldn't have to worry about it..

I agree, but not for the same reasons as you. How do you date the earth. Carbon dating only works on life. In the beginning there was no life. So how can it possibly be dated. You can choose not to believe in God. But, dont trust these backwards scientists. They dont know what they are doing. And there is no proof to back up their work.

No, many human beings seem caught on the theory they are in a position to't settle for info of nature if those info contradict those human beings's INTERPRETATION of an historic close to eastern holy e book. possibly they might desire to contemplate that their interpretation might nicely be defective, hmmm? the two that, or their holy e book is mendacity to them. the two that, or whoever or regardless of created the universe planted numerous fake info of many categories that needless to say practice evolution occurs as a unwell shaggy dog tale to attempt our faith or lie to rational human beings into going to Hell. maximum mainstream Christian denominations settle for the actuality that human beings developed from until now primates, purely as they settle for the actuality that the earth is going around the solar and not vice versa through fact the Bible implies. They settle for those info through fact of overwhelming info that they are authentic. There are some denominations that insist on Biblical literalism, or the fundamentalist interpretation, yet that interpretation is falsified via the info of the international that for the duration of accordance to them, replaced into created via their God. So that's it, is God mendacity in his e book or interior the info of his creation? or possibly, purely possibly, IF the Bible is authentic then you certainly at the instant are not meant to interpret all the products actually?

For my answer, I'll simply quote part of your question:
Everyone hear what they want to hear and can't see something they don't want to see. So the delusion is going on ......

Now lets think of how people are behaving those days!
most of them seems like they don't believe in god or don't believe in religion! i believe the phenomenon of religion is fading away and its so sad!
There should be awareness about religion and its importance!
